mcresearch Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Hi everybody, I'm ready to buy the Limited AWD and will be placing an order on Monday. Here are the packages I'll be ordering: Vision (Blind Spot information system, cross traffic alert, rain sensing wipers) Driver Entry (Perimeter Alarm, Push Button Start, Power Liftgate, Remote Start) Canadian Touring (Vista Roof, Navigation) I was wondering about the ambient lighting - is this a feature to bother with? I noticed that the self parking system isn't offered in Canada - I wonder why - maybe our snowbanks are too high! BTW, this is a great forum with a ton of useful information.

Had my Limited AWD for about 3 months. Absolutely love it. THe car is one of the most fun to drive I have ever owned. All the gadgets do keep it different. I have everything on it but the rear video and see the value in each. Love the remote start, and all the radar features, Vista Roof or as they call it here the BAMR. In regards to the Ambient Lighting, as I recall it is standard on the Limited and though I don't switch colors very often, love the lighting effect. In terms of self park, unless I missed something, it is not an option. It has the rear backup alert and the rear camera that aids in parking or backing up. But do not believe it will parallel park by itself as some cars do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered it last night - quite a lengthy process involving proof that I had insured my Focus for the past 2 years and that it was still registered (Retire Your Ride Plan); Costco membership details for the extra $1000 off plus Ford Plan info. They tried to charge me extra for metallic paint but relented when I looked as if I was about to walk. Today will find out how long the wait is.
